Hi I recently applied for the paramedic position onboard princess cruises. I have always wanted to work on board a cruise ship with my paramedic skills. I was excited when I saw that they were actively recruiting. I have extensive experience of over 15 years in medical filed, I have Bachelor's degree in paramedic practice and will soon complete a Post Certificate in prescribing. So I have a wealth of experience in both primary and emergency care. However I have actively been discriminated against due to having a visible tattoo on my left forearm. I have been told its due to some policy. Its a very sad case that in 2021 there is still companies like this that are judgmental based on my appearance and have not took into account my qualifications and experience and weather or not I'm the best person for the job. I will certainly never cruise with princess or associated cruise lines again and will actively! encourage everyone to do the same. I suggest if you want to keep and have quality staff to represent your cruise line and company then you should base this on how well they are for the role, not on how they look.
